DON’T JUST DECORATE FOR HALLOWEEN- SERVE UP SOME DELICIOUS TREATS FOR YOUR EVENING GUESTS Halloween recipes in our household have become somewhat of a tradition and it’s not because we are parents now because we started it years ago for a work party. I’ve never quite seen so many of my colleagues go mad for eating a finger before but I guess it’s an inside joke considering the line of work we are in. One of our most popular Halloween recipes on the blog are Spooky Witches Fingers which are super easy to make and inexpensive.
